Traces of work in the building
The museum website describes a former buoy shed: a place for the buoys used to mark the fairway. A lifting crane and rails are among the traces mentioned. During your visit, look at how such features relate to the space around them.
A cottage in the courtyard
Siegerlida’s Hoeske is presented as a rebuilt Zoutkamp fisherman’s cottage. Look at how the furnishings make everyday life visible. Which objects help you understand an activity, such as preparing food or putting something away?
Ships as a separate destination
The museum information mentions the shrimp cutter ZK 4 Albatros and the wooden shrimp boat ZK 31 Neptunus. Boat trip packages are also described. A boat trip requires its own planning; check the departure point, availability and conditions as well as admission to the museum.
Before you go
The regular museum schedule is seasonal. Book any boat trip separately and check the current departure information.
